Honda Multi Matic Transmission/CVT

System Description (cont'd)

14-285  

Position, when an electronic control system breakdown occurs.

When an electronic control system breakdown occurs, the transmission uses the pitot pipe pressure (PP) to allow the vehicle to drive.

When all solenoids and sensors are off because of an electronic control system breakdown, shift inhibitor valve is moved to left side and uncovers the port leading shift inhibitor pressure (SI) to the pitot lubrication pipe. The pitot lubrication pipe discharges fluid inside of the pitot flange and discharged fluid enters into the pitot pipe and it is applied to the right end of the CPC valve via the shift inhibitor valve. The pitot pressure (PP) is increased, the CPC valve is moved to left side and the start clutch pressure (SC) is increased. The start clutch pressure (SC) is applied to the start clutch and the start clutch is engaged. At this time, the drive pulley receives high pressure and the driven pulley receives low pressure, the pulley ration is in high.

NOTE: When used, ''left'' or ''right'' indicates direction on the hydraulic circuit.
